Chapter 93: I’m Doing So For The Good of The Shi Family (2/2)

Half a year of mourning? Shi Fengju sneered coldly. Only she can make things seem pompous yet earnest!

She has always been a clever person! Shi Fengju could not help but sigh to himself. It was a pity that her intelligence was used in the wrong area.

Shi Yumei and Ren Zhixian wanted to move into Banana Courtyard as soon as possible, and everyday, they would eagerly head there to see its progress. After seven days, Banana Courtyard was finally arranged and decorated, and the two were prepared to move in in two days’ time.

Sure enough, Shi Yumei went to the small garden to find Sang Wan before picking a few vases, paintings, and stuff. Sang Wan never had an eye for those things, and she let her have them without any second thoughts.

When Shi Fengju saw what was missing, he felt apologetic and comforted Sang Wan, telling her that he would make another purchase for those things that were taken away. Sang Wan smiled and said nothing more.

On the day when Shi Yumei moved in, Gu Fangzi could not be present, but she sent Lan Xiang on her behalf to give her congratulations as well as other auspicious words.

But that wasn’t the sole purpose of Lan Xiang presence. Her most important reason was that Lan Xiang was finally able to hold back Shi Fengju.

These few days, Shi Fengju had never taken a step into Peony Park, and Gu Fangzi was getting anxious. All she heard from Shi Yumei was that Shi Fengju was very busy. But Gu Fangzi knew, even though those words could trick Shi Yumei, they could not trick her. If he really had the heart to, there was no way he couldn’t find time to see her!

Hearing Shi Yumei giving the same response numerous times, she was of no help to her. And so, she could only use her only card: To use Lan Xiang to invite him over!

Although Lan Xiang had gone to invite him, she was nothing but a servant. Shi Fengju wouldn’t even bother to follow her, but there was no way she could just abduct him to Peony Park!

But today was different. In front of Shi Yumei, Lan Xiang stopped Shi Fengju before saying pitifully, “Young Master, if you have the time, please go and see my missy! She has been thinking a lot about you!”

Shi Fengju extremely disliked those words. How could a woman in her mourning period not mourn properly but have another man in her heart. Even though that man was him, he did not feel happy at all. Rather, he was feeling the opposite.

Hearing so, Shi Yumei quickly added, “Seriously, you should go and see Fangzi! Every time I tell you to do so, you are always busy running off somewhere! But today, no matter what you say, you must still go over and see her! Fangzi really is pitiful!” As she said that, she cast a glance at Sang Wan. “You weren’t like this in the past. Did someone say something at your back?”

Sang Wan acted as if she had not heard so, and she instructed the servants to be careful when carrying the items into the house.

“Big Sis!” Shi Fengju frowned. “Is your younger brother someone who cannot make decisions on his own? Who can tell me what to do? And who can make the decision for me?”

He secretly said to himself, The ones who are actually trying to decide for me are none other than you and that damn good cousin!

“Ah, that’s right! My younger brother isn’t foolish!” Shi Yumei smiled to herself before urging, “Your Big Sister’s place is still a mess, so I won’t keep you here. So go, quickly!”

Shi Fengju felt utterly helpless. If he didn’t go, then she would surely nag at him for who knew how long. Forget it, might as well then!

He turned and left with a long face.

Lan Xiang was extremely elated. She bowed and gave her thanks to Shi Yumei before hurrying off to catch up with Shi Fengju.

“Missy! Missy! Young Master has come to see you!” Shortly after arriving, Lan Xiang announced loudly.

Inside the house, Gu Fangzi was excited, and she quickly got herself dressed before going out to welcome him.

“Big Cousin!” Gu Fangzi gazed at Shi Fengju passionately. “You, you’ve finally come to see me.”

“How are you feeling? Is everything fine!” Shi Fengju did his best to make sure his tone did not sound impatient and hostile as he walked into the house.

After thinking carefully, it hadn’t been long since he last saw her. But at this point, as she stood in front of him, he could not help but feel that she was an entire stranger to him, and his heart did not flutter. It was just like meeting someone who had no relations with him at all.

To think that he had actually married her as his concubine, Shi Fengju suddenly felt chilly and frustrated.

“Fang’er is doing fine. Thank you, Big Cousin, for your concern!” Gu Fangzi quickly ushered him to a seat before smiling gently. “These few days, I have to thank Cousin Yumei for accompanying Fang’er! Just thinking about the past when the three of us would sit together to talk, those times really make me happy! It’s so great that Cousin Yumei will now be staying with us! In the future, the three of us can be like in the past, we can—”

“Even though Big Sis will be staying with us, she is still the Ren family’s daughter-in-law. She has to serve her husband, so there’s no way things will be the same as before!” Shi Fengju was even more displeased when she brought up the past.

“Big Cousin is right!” Gu Fangzi’s mood today was extremely positive. She did not refute him after hearing his words, and instead admitted her wrong, “It was foolish of me! Not just Cousin Yumei, you and I are no longer the same, too. We’re finally… together! All these years have finally come to fruit. Big Cousin’s feelings towards me truly have not changed! Fang’er really is glad!”

At this moment, Lan Xiang was present to serve them tea, but she quickly retreated.
